The farmhouse is in the middle of nowhere - perfect for some peace and quiet in the countryside. Alison is a lovely host. The room was spacious and clean with plenty of amenities so we had a very comfortable stay. Breakfast was generous and tasty.
And Rex the Border Collie was a lovely bonus!

Excellent stay - check your sat nav - use EX6 7XF
My stay was wonderful although a little tricky to find at first. If you book your stay here use the postcode EX6 7XF which will take you to Pennycombe Farm. It’s a further half a mile on the left.

Great for a solo traveler!
Great service, lovely landlady and a home cooked breakfast each day. And for a really competitive price. Requires a short drive on country roads to get there but it's in a nice quiet location, no outside noise.
Room was a bit small but for a solo traveler it wasnt a big issue, you don't have a lot of room to move around in it. Maybe a bit cosy for a couple.
Definitely worth the stay, I only hope I can get a room next year.

Fabulous room, lovely quiet surroundings.
Quiet country location, but very close to the City. Spacious and well- equipped room, huge lawn and lovely agricultural surroundings. Own entrance. Accommodating host and excellent full English breakfast.
